Track Insight / Lyrics
Checking logs, counting hours, mind adrift into the haze
Lights from the mainland pierce through the gloom in seductive ways
Storm drains rattle, a chill October breeze
Rustic calls of gulls, lonely and releasing
Each flicker a lonely rhythm against my skin
Athletic shoes echo, the only footstep within
The heartbeat of a watchdog, wide awake and tired
Guarding secrets only the shadows can acquire
Oh, in the languid dance of night and dawn
I'm a sentinel, turning introspective in this storm
Through the kaleidoscope of city lights
Wandering shadows meet my lonely plight
Midnight fueled, I chase refueling dreams
Coffee swirls, bitter and strong, each sip a temporary beam
Rain drips rhythm on the pier beneath
Melodies hidden behind metallic beats
Each flicker a lonely rhythm against my skin
Athletic shoes echo, the only footstep within
The heartbeat of a watchdog, wide awake and tired
Guarding secrets only the shadows can acquire
Oh, in the languid dance of night and dawn
I'm a sentinel, turning introspective in this storm
Through the kaleidoscope of city lights
Wandering shadows meet my lonely plight
Ghosts of memories, a fleeting glance
Phosphorescent whispers under web of chance
Transients mingle, strangers passing by
Lonesome calls of sailors, heading to the sky
Oh, in the languid dance of night and dawn
I'm a sentinel, turning introspective in this storm
Through the kaleidoscope of city lights
Wandering shadows meet my lonely plight
Oh, in the languid dance of night and dawn
I'm a sentinel, turning introspective in this storm
Through the kaleidoscope of city lights
Shadows carry me, into a new light
Sunrise whispers, dew evaporating fast
The lonely vigil ends, another day to clasp
In thinning shadows, I lay down my arms
The night will call again, though memories disarm.
